  • Perform ad hoc analysis to support sales strategy, planning, and executive-level reporting
  • Implement best practices that drive simplification, efficiency, and productivity improvements for sales users
  • Manage core sales operations functions including user setup, territory management, forecasting, and data hygiene
  • Conduct sales leader training sessions and develop change management materials to drive adoption of new processes and tools
What You Bring 
  • MUST HAVE Deep technical expertise in Salesforce with experience in related cloud-based or web-based technologies
  • Bachelor's degree and 3-5 years of experience in Sales Operations, Business Systems Analysis, or a similar function
  • Self-starter mentality with the ability to shift priorities quickly, solve problems creatively, and deliver quality results under tight deadlines
  • Excellent written and verbal communication skills, including receptive listening and the ability to present complex ideas clearly to both technical and non-technical audiences
  • Strong collaboration skills, with demonstrated ability to work across virtual and global cross-functional teams
  • Strong data and analytics acumen, with demonstrated ability to synthesize large datasets into actionable insights, build reporting frameworks, and drive data-informed decision-making across sales and revenue operations
  • Proficiency in SQL and BI tools (e.g., Tableau, Looker, Power BI, or similar), with hands-on experience writing queries, manipulating data, and delivering compelling dashboards and reports for stakeholders at all levels
  • Proven change management and process transformation experience, with a track record of leading adoption across complex organizations
  • Proactive, forward-thinking mindset with a solid creative problem-solving aptitude
  • End-to-end implementation and support experience with global business systems, from requirements gathering through testing and production rollout
